Where it ranks in wp.org search
Not yet in the top 24 results for any search we track. The fixes below are what move it in.
What to fix first
- 1
Ship a compatibility release to reset the freshness signal.
No update in 99 months. wp.org search heavily penalizes stale plugins, and users look for a recent release.
- 2
Set "Tested up to" to WordPress 7.1
Tested up to WordPress 5.0.31; the current branch is 7.1. Matching the current branch keeps its full search weight.
- 3
Ask happy users for a review
10 reviews so far. wp.org gives the rating more weight as the count grows past 25.
- 4
Use all 5 tags
2 of 5 tags set. Each tag is another search the plugin can match.
- 5
“login” and “redirect” aren't earning a slot
You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

Readme fails 5 of 8 AI readiness checks
Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists.

What to do: Ship a compatibility release to reset the freshness signal.
Readme fails 5 of 8 AI readiness checks
Needs workAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: has a faq, faq asks real questions, names who it is for, names what it works with and headings and lists. Only 1 question in the FAQ; 3 or more gives an assistant something to match.
What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.
Run the free AI visibility scan →Review volume is thin
OpportunityOnly 10 ratings. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.
What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.
Small download base. 131 downloads in 30 days, so a +13% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
No open vulnerabilities recorded. No unpatched security advisory is recorded against this plugin.
